I think a snort-specific tool is the wrong way to do this.  You have
interesting trendable data all over the place, and for a (relatively)
small amount of additional effort you cam deploy a general purpose tool
instead.  The big open-source players in the space are:

1) Nagios + some graphing framework: Huge user-base and module-list, but
no integrated graphing and probably the worst learning curve.

Munin works with Nagios. So when Munin sees that snort is dropping
more than x% packets etc. (configurable) it alerts Nagios.
